First off... the title was taken from the song "Porcelain" by Red Hot Chili Peppers.... the feel of the song itself was very similar to the feel of the picture.... so thats how i came up with the name, incase anyone was wondering lol
This is a self portrait. Its my second but I like this one far better than the first. Self portraits aren't easy but I'm pretty happy with this turn out. The picture was taken at the beach this past weekend and i liked the angle so i drew it. The hair was a *pain* but once i started to draw it i got into the groove and it went by pretty fast.
Specs:
Paper: Smooth Bristol
Size: 9X12
Used: 3b,6b,8b, H
Time: about 4 hours
YES! red hot chili peppers. not my fav song, but dig everything they've made. gong li is probably my fav...
as for the important stuff- this is an insanely awesome drawing, i'm having trouble deciding whether i like the detail in the lips or eye more, but everything in this drawing rocks.
When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
